One of the most frequent questions that I get asked through our Contact Us page is whether we build in a particular geographic area. While we are working very hard to take over the World (Mouhahahaha), we are currently expanding at a good rate and keeping operations focused in New Brunswick for 2013.

So, where do we build? Check out our list of MHB locations:

1. Greater Moncton

Moncton, World Headquarters for Martell Home Builders, is where we set roots and first established ourselves. We build in all of the Greater Moncton Area including Dieppe and Riverview. Because Moncton is our most established location, we’ve been able to diversify into Lease-2-Buy properties and reselling through our sister company Martell Realty. Moncton Fun Fact: In 2008, Readers’ Digest dubbed Moncton “Canada’s most polite & honest city.”

2. Miramichi

2012 marked our third building season in Miramichi. We really enjoy working with the local trades & people in the Miramichi area and providing them with the Martell Experience. Miramichi Fun Fact: In 2010, Miramichi was named the world’s first Smart Technologies Showcase Community for use of Smartboards in schools & businesses.

3. Saint John

Saint John is a market that we’ve been working for three seasons as well. We’ve been active building custom homes in the Greater Saint John Area and we love working with our awesome team of established local trades. Saint John Fun Fact: Saint John boasts the largest public transit system in the Province.

4. Sussex

Just a skip down the highway, the picturesque community of Sussex is growing. Increasingly popular with the retiree crowd, we think that Sussex is the perfect market for our bungalow semi-detached homes which offer one-story living at a value price point. Sussex Fun Fact: Sussex is the “Mural Capital Of Atlantic Canada”.

5. Fredericton

2013 will mark our expansion into the Fredericton market and we couldn’t be more excited! Fredericton is a such a great city with an active lifestyle. In fact, we are actually hiring a new Location Manager for this market place. Check out the job positing here. Fredericton Fun Fact: The notorious Benedict Arnold once lived in Fredericton.

People who know me know that I like to jump into things with both feet.

So, when we decided to expand Martell Home Builders into a new market – I literally moved into the market. After many, many years of living in Moncton I’m now living in Saint John. I know you are wondering: of course I built my own house!

It only took 93 days.

One big reason the Martell Experience has worked so well in Moncton that I know the community, the people and the neighbourhoods. We want to bring that same level of service to the Saint Johns’ market. I think it will be easier to do when I wake up here in the morning. This is about getting to know and truly understand the surrounding communities and the city of Saint John. (Moncton friends and family, rest assured I’ll be around often – I’m only here for three quarters of the week.)

I’m already getting to know my new community – only about ten lots away from the Saint John river the neighbourhood is very beautiful . The community, Quispamsis, is amazing. And my neighbourhood Deer Haven has already lived up to its’ name: I’ve already seen the deer it’s named after four times!

Here is a picture of the new house; but please don’t let pictures be the only way you see my place – just invite yourself over! I’d be happy to give you a tour. Just send a quick note on our contact section and we will set it up:
